Before you invest, you should read the Base Prospectus and the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement for this offering in that registration statement, and other documents the Issuer has filed with the SEC for more complete information about the Issuer and this offering. You may get these documents for free by searching the SEC online database (EDGAR) at www.sec.gov. Alternatively, you may obtain a copy of the Base Prospectus and the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement from Barclays Capital Inc. by calling 1-888-603-5847.

It is expected that delivery of the Notes will be made for value on or about June 24, 2020, which will be the fifth (5th) business day in the United States following the date of pricing of the Notes. Under Rule 15c6-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, purchases or sales of Notes in the secondary market generally are required to settle within two (2) business days (T+2), unless the parties to any such transaction expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers of the Notes who wish to trade the Notes on the date of the prospectus supplement or the next two (2) succeeding business days, will be required, because the Notes initially will settle within five (5) business days (T+5) in the United States, to specify an alternate settlement cycle at the time of any such trade to prevent a failed settlement. Purchasers of the Notes who wish to trade on the date of the prospectus supplement or the next two (2) succeeding business days should consult their own legal advisers.

The Company may from time to time, without the consent of the Holders of the Securities, issue additional securities of such series having the same ranking and same interest rate, Stated Maturity, redemption terms and other terms as the Securities described in this Seventh Supplemental Indenture, except for the price to the public and Issue Date. Any such additional securities subsequently issued shall rank equally and ratably with the Securities in all respects, so that such further securities shall be consolidated and form a single series with the applicable series of the Securities.

(d) Any proposed transfer of an interest in Securities held in the form of a Global Security shall be effected through the book-entry system maintained by DTC.

(e) The Securities shall not have a sinking fund.

(f) The Securities shall be issued on June 24, 2020 (the “Issue Date”).

SECTION 2.02 Interest.

(a) The interest rate on the Securities shall be, or shall be determined, as set forth in Annex I hereto.

(b) The interest so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date shall, as provided in the Indenture, be paid to the Person in whose name the relevant Security (or any Predecessor Senior Debt Security) is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest.

-6-

SECTION 2.03 Payment of Principal, Interest and Other Amounts.

(a) Payments of principal of and interest on the Securities shall be made in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts and such payments on Securities represented by a Global Security shall be made through one or more Paying Agents appointed under the Base Indenture to DTC or its nominee, as the Holder or Holders of the Global Security. Initially, the Paying Agent for the Securities shall be The Bank of New York Mellon, London Branch, One Canada Square, London E14 5AL, United Kingdom and the Place of Payment in respect of the Securities shall be the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, which as of the date hereof is hereby designated for purposes of the Securities initially as the office or agency of the Trustee located at said address. Initially, the Senior Debt Security Registrar for the Securities shall be The Bank of New York Mellon SA/NV, Luxembourg Branch, 2-4 Rue Eugene Ruppert, Vertigo Building – Polaris, Luxembourg, 2453, Luxembourg (which location shall also be a Place of Payment for purposes of Section 3.05(a) of the Base Indenture). The Company at any time and from time to time may change the Paying Agent or, subject to Section 9.01 of the Base Indenture, the Place of Payment, and the Senior Debt Security Registrar without prior notice to the Holders of the Securities, and in such an event the Company may act as Paying Agent or Senior Debt Security Registrar. Payments of principal of and interest on the Securities represented by a Global Security shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds; provided, however, that in the case of payments of principal, such Global Security is first surrendered to the Paying Agent. If a date of redemption or repayment or the Stated Maturity is not a Business Day, the Company may pay interest and principal and/or any amount payable upon redemption or repayment of the Securities on the next succeeding Business Day, but interest on that payment will not accrue during the period from and after the date of redemption or repayment or such Stated Maturity.

SECTION 2.04 Optional Redemption. Subject to the notice period and provisions set forth in Sections 11.02 and 11.04 of the Base Indenture, and to the conditions set forth in Section 11.10 of the Base Indenture, the Company may redeem, at its option (A) the Securities at any time outstanding, in whole or in part, at any time on or after December 24, 2020 (six months following the Issue Date and, if any additional Securities are issued after the Issue Date, except for the period of six months beginning on the issue date for any additional Securities) to (but excluding) the Par Redemption Date, at an amount equal to the higher of (i) 100% of the principal amount of the Securities to be redeemed and (ii) as determined by the Determination Agent, the sum of the present values of the principal (discounted from the Par Redemption Date) and remaining payments of interest to be made on any scheduled Interest Payment Date to the Par Redemption Date for the Securities to be redeemed (not including accrued but unpaid interest, if any, on the principal amount of the Securities) discounted to the Redemption Date on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Optional Redemption Treasury Rate plus 30 basis points together with, in either case of (i) or (ii) above, accrued but unpaid interest, if any, on the principal amount of the Securities to be redeemed to (but excluding) the Redemption Date (the “Make-Whole Redemption”) and/or (B) the Securities then outstanding, in whole but not in part, on the Par Redemption Date, at an amount equal to 100% of their principal amount together with accrued but unpaid interest, if any, on the principal amount of the Securities to be redeemed to (but excluding) the Redemption Date (the “Par Redemption”).

-7-

“Optional Redemption Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, the rate per annum equal to: (1) the yield, under the heading which represents the average for the week immediately prior to the calculation date, appearing in the most recently published statistical release designated “H.15,” or any successor publication that is published by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System that establishes yields on actively traded U.S. Treasury securities adjusted to constant maturity, under the caption “Treasury constant maturities”, for the maturity most closely corresponding to the Par Redemption Date (if no maturity is within three months before or after the Par Redemption Date, yields for the two published maturities most closely corresponding to the Optional Redemption Comparable Treasury Issue shall be determined and the Optional Redemption Treasury Rate shall be interpolated or extrapolated from such yields on a straight-line basis, rounding to the nearest month); or (2) if such release (or any successor release) is not published during the week immediately prior to the calculation date or does not contain such yields, the rate per annum equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity of the Optional Redemption Comparable Treasury Issue, calculated using a price for the Optional Redemption Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Optional Redemption Comparable Treasury Price for such Redemption Date; provided that, if the period from the Redemption Date to the Par Redemption Date is less than one year, the weekly average yield on actually traded U.S. Treasury securities adjusted to a constant maturity of one year will be used.

The Optional Redemption Treasury Rate shall be calculated by the Determination Agent on the third Business Day preceding the Redemption Date.

In determining the Optional Redemption Treasury Rate, the below terms will have the following meaning:

“Optional Redemption Comparable Treasury Issue” means, with respect to the Redemption Date, the U.S. Treasury security selected by the Determination Agent as having an actual or interpolated maturity comparable with the remaining term to the Par Redemption Date that would be utilized, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities denominated in U.S. dollars and of comparable maturity to the remaining term to the Par Redemption Date.

“Optional Redemption Comparable Treasury Price” means, with respect to the Redemption Date, (i) the arithmetic average of the Optional Redemption Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for such Redemption Date (calculated on the third Business Day preceding such Redemption Date), after excluding the highest and lowest such Optional Redemption Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, or (ii) if fewer than five such Optional Redemption Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations are received, the arithmetic average of all such quotations, or (iii) if fewer than two such Optional Redemption Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations are received, then such Optional Redemption Reference Treasury Dealer Quotation.

“Determination Agent” means an investment bank or financial institution of international standing selected by the Company and which may be an affiliate of the Company.

“Optional Redemption Reference Treasury Dealer” means, with respect to the Redemption Date, each of up to five banks selected by the Company (following, where practicable, consultation with the Determination Agent, if applicable), or the affiliates of such banks, which are (i) primary U.S. government securities dealers, and their respective successors, or (ii) market makers in pricing corporate bond issues.

-8-

“Optional Redemption Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations” means, with respect to each Optional Redemption Reference Treasury Dealer and the Redemption Date, the arithmetic average, as determined by the Determination Agent, of the bid and offered prices (as quoted to the Determination Agent by such Optional Redemption Reference Treasury Dealer) for the applicable Optional Redemption Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) at 11:00 a.m., New York time, on the third Business Day preceding such Redemption Date.

Unless the Company defaults on payment of the Redemption Price, interest will cease to accrue on the Redemption Date on the Securities or portions thereof called for redemption. The Trustee has no responsibility for any calculation or determination in respect of the establishment of the Make-Whole Redemption price and shall be entitled to receive and rely conclusively upon an Officer’s Certificate executed in accordance with the Base Indenture that states the Make-Whole Redemption price.

SECTION 2.05 Loss Absorption Disqualification Event Redemption. If a Loss Absorption Regulations Event occurs on or after the Issue Date that does, or would be likely to (in the opinion of the Company, the PRA or the Relevant U.K. Resolution Authority), result in a Loss Absorption Disqualification Event, the Company may, at the Company’s option, at any time, redeem the Securities, in whole but not in part, at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Securities being redeemed together with accrued but unpaid interest, if any, on the principal amount of the Securities to be redeemed to (but excluding) the Redemption Date. For the avoidance of doubt, except as otherwise set forth in this Seventh Supplemental Indenture, Article 11 of the Base Indenture shall apply to any redemption of Securities pursuant to this Section 2.05.

SECTION 2.06 Events of Default. The terms of Sections 5.01, 5.02 and 5.03 (except for Sections 5.03(c) and 5.03(f)) of the Base Indenture shall not apply to the Securities and shall be replaced in their entirety by the enforcement events and remedies set forth in Section 2.07 hereof.

SECTION 2.07 Enforcement Events and Remedies.

(a) If a Winding-Up Event occurs, the principal amount of the Outstanding Securities, together with any accrued but unpaid interest thereon, shall become immediately due and payable, without the need of any further action on the part of the Trustee, the Holders or any other Person.

(b) If the Company fails to pay any amount that has become due and payable under the Securities and such failure continues for fourteen (14) days, the Trustee may provide a written notice of such failure to the Company. If within a period of fourteen (14) days following the provision of such notice, the failure continues and has not been cured nor waived (a “Non-Payment Event”), the Trustee may at its discretion and without further notice to the Company institute proceedings in England (or such other jurisdiction in which the Company may be organized) (but not elsewhere) for the Company’s winding-up and/or prove in the Company’s winding-up and/or claim in the Company’s liquidation or administration.

(c) In addition to the remedies for a Non-Payment Event provided in Section 2.07(b) hereof, the Trustee may, without further notice, institute such proceedings against the Company as the Trustee may deem fit to enforce any term, obligation or condition binding on the Company under the Securities or the Indenture (other than any payment obligation of the Company under or arising from the Securities or the Indenture, including, without limitation, payment of any principal or interest, including Additional Amounts) (such obligation, a

-9-

“Performance Obligation”); provided always that the Trustee (acting on behalf of the Holders and Beneficial Owners of the Securities) and the Holders and Beneficial Owners of the Securities may not enforce, and may not be entitled to enforce or otherwise claim, against the Company any judgment or other award given in such proceedings that requires the payment of money by the Company, whether by way of damages or otherwise (a “Monetary Judgment”), except by proving such Monetary Judgment in the Company’s winding-up and/or by claiming such Monetary Judgment in the Company’s administration.

(d) By its acquisition of the Securities, each Holder and Beneficial Owner of the Securities acknowledges and agrees that such Holder and Beneficial Owner shall not seek to enforce or otherwise claim, and shall not direct the Trustee (acting on behalf of the Holders and Beneficial Owners of the Securities) to enforce or otherwise claim, a Monetary Judgment against the Company in connection with the Company’s breach of a Performance Obligation, except by proving such Monetary Judgment in the Company’s winding-up and/or by claiming such Monetary Judgment in the Company’s administration.

(e) Other than the limited remedies specified in this Section 2.07 and subject to Section 2.07(f) hereof, no remedy against the Company shall be available to the Trustee (acting on behalf of the Holders and Beneficial Owners of the Securities) or the Holders and Beneficial Owners of the Securities whether for the recovery of amounts owing in respect of such Securities or under the Indenture or in respect of any breach by the Company of any of the Company’s obligations under or in respect of the terms of such Securities or under the Indenture in relation thereto; provided, however, that the Company’s obligations to, and rights of, the Trustee under Section 6.07 of the Base Indenture and the Trustee’s rights to have money collected applied first to pay amounts due to it under such Section pursuant to Section 5.06 of the Base Indenture expressly survive any Senior Enforcement Event.

(f) Notwithstanding the limitation on remedies specified in this Section 2.07, (1) the Trustee shall have such powers as are required to be authorized to it under the Trust Indenture Act in respect of the rights of the Holders of the Securities under the provisions of the Indenture and (2) nothing shall impair the right of a Holder of the Securities under the Trust Indenture Act, absent such Holder’s consent, to sue for any payment due but unpaid with respect to the Securities. No Holder of Securities shall be entitled to proceed directly against the Company except as described in Section 5.07 of the Base Indenture.

SECTION 2.08 Trustee’s Duties. In case of a Senior Enforcement Event with respect to the Securities, the Trustee shall with respect to such Securities exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by the Indenture, and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise, as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his or her own affairs. For these purposes, a “Senior Enforcement Event” shall occur (i) upon the occurrence of a Winding-Up Event, (ii) upon the occurrence of a Non-Payment Event or (iii) upon a breach by the Company of a Performance Obligation with respect to the Securities.

SECTION 2.09 Waiver of Certain Past Events of Default. For purposes of the Base Indenture and with respect to the Securities, Section 5.13 of the Base Indenture shall be replaced in its entirety by the following:

“(a) Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Senior Debt Securities of any series may on behalf of the Holders of all of the Senior Debt Securities of such series waive any past Event of Default that results from a breach by the Company of a Performance Obligation. Holders of a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Senior Debt Securities of such series shall not be entitled to waive any past Event of Default that results from a Winding-Up Event or a Non-Payment Event.

-10-

(b) Upon the occurrence of any waiver permitted by paragraph (a) above, such Event of Default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default with respect to any series arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured and not to have occurred for every purpose of this Senior Debt Securities Indenture, but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon.”

SECTION 2.10 Notice of Defaults Following an Event of Default. For purposes of the Base Indenture and with respect to the Securities, Section 6.02 of the Base Indenture shall be replaced in its entirety by the following:

“Within ninety (90) days after the occurrence of any Event of Default hereunder with respect to Senior Debt Securities of any series, the Trustee shall transmit in the manner and to the extent provided in Section 1.06 to Holders of Senior Debt Securities of such series notice of such Event of Default hereunder actually known to the Trustee, unless such Event of Default shall have been cured or waived; provided, however, that the Trustee shall be protected in withholding such notice if a trust committee of Responsible Officers of the Trustee determine in good faith that the withholding of such notice is in the interest of the Holders of Senior Debt Securities of such series.”

SECTION 2.11 Applicability of the Term “Event of Default.” For purposes of the Base Indenture, the term “Event of Default” shall mean “Senior Enforcement Event” as defined in this Seventh Supplemental Indenture, except that the term “Event of Default” as used in Sections 3.05(c)(ii) and 6.07 of the Base Indenture and Article 8 of the Base Indenture shall mean “Winding-Up Event.”

SECTION 2.12 Certain Acts of Holders Following an Event of Default. For purposes of the Base Indenture and with respect to the Securities, Section 1.04(d) of the Base Indenture shall be replaced in its entirety by the following:

“Upon receipt by the Trustee from any Holder of Senior Debt Securities of a particular series of any direction referred to in Section 5.12 with respect to Senior Debt Securities of such series, if the Trustee shall not have taken the action specified in such direction, then the Trustee may set a record date for determining the Holders of Outstanding Senior Debt Securities of such series entitled to join in such direction. The Trustee will notify the Company and the Holders of Outstanding Senior Debt Securities of such series of any such record date so fixed. The Holders of Outstanding Senior Debt Securities of such series as of the close of business on such record date, and no other Holders, shall be entitled to join in such direction, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date.”

SECTION 2.13 Notice of Redemption.

(a) Before the Company may redeem the Securities pursuant to Section 2.04 or Section 2.05 hereof or pursuant to Section 11.09 of the Base Indenture, the Company shall deliver via DTC or the relevant clearing system(s) (or, if the Securities are definitive Securities, to the Holders at their addresses shown on the register for the Securities) prior notice of not less than fifteen (15) days, nor more than sixty (60) days, to the Holders of the Securities. The Company shall deliver written notice of such redemption of the Securities to the Trustee at least five (5) Business Days prior to the date on which the relevant notice of redemption is sent to Holders (unless a shorter notice period shall be satisfactory to the Trustee). Such notice shall specify the Company’s election to redeem the Securities and the date fixed for such redemption and shall be irrevocable except in the limited circumstances described in paragraphs (b) below.

-11-

(b) If the Company has delivered a notice of redemption pursuant to paragraph (a) of this Section 2.13, but prior to the payment of the redemption amount with respect to such redemption the Relevant U.K. Resolution Authority exercises its U.K. Bail-in Power with respect to the Securities, such redemption notice shall be automatically rescinded and shall be of no force and effect, and no payment in respect of the redemption amount shall be due and payable.

(c) If any event specified in paragraph (b) above occurs, the Company shall promptly deliver notice to the Holders of the Securities via DTC or the relevant clearing system(s) (or, if the Securities are definitive Securities, to the Holders at their addresses shown on the shown on the register for the Securities) and to the Trustee directly, specifying the occurrence of the relevant event.

ANNEX I

Interest Terms of the Securities

Interest Terms of the Securities

Interest Rate:	From (and including) the Issue Date to (but excluding) the Reset Date, the Securities will bear interest at a rate of 2.645% per annum (the “Initial Interest Rate”). From (and including) the Reset Date to (but excluding) the Maturity Date (the “Reset Period” ), the applicable per annum interest rate (the “Subsequent Interest Rate”) will be equal to the sum, as determined by the Calculation Agent, of the then-prevailing U.S. Treasury Rate (such term subject to the provisions described below) on the Reset Determination Date, plus 1.900% (the “Margin”).
Interest Payment Dates:	Semi-annually in arrear on June 24 and December 24 in each year, commencing on December 24, 2020 (each, an “Interest Payment Date”). If any Interest Payment Date would fall on a day that is not a Business Day, the Company will pay interest on the next succeeding Business Day, but interest on that payment will not accrue during the period from and after the scheduled Interest Payment Date.
Reset Date:	June 24, 2030 (the “Reset Date”)
Reset Determination Date:	The second Business Day immediately preceding the Reset Date (the “Reset Determination Date”).

Par Redemption Date:	June 24, 2030.
Calculation of U.S. Treasury Rate:	The Calculation Agent will determine the Subsequent Interest Rate for the Securities by reference to the then-prevailing U.S. Treasury Rate, on the Reset Determination Date. Promptly upon such determination, the Calculation Agent will notify the Company and the Trustee (if the Calculation Agent is not the Trustee) of the Subsequent Interest Rate. All determinations and any calculations made by the Calculation Agent for the purposes of calculating the Subsequent Interest Rate (or component thereof) shall be conclusive and binding on the holders of the Securities, the Company and the Trustee, absent manifest error. The Calculation Agent shall not be responsible to the Company, holders of the Securities or any third party for any failure of any Reference Treasury Dealer to provide quotations as requested of them or as a result of the Calculation Agent having acted on any quotation or other information given by any Reference Treasury Dealers which subsequently may be found to be incorrect or inaccurate in any way.

“U.S. Treasury Rate” means, with respect to the Reset Period, the rate per annum equal to: (1) the yield, under the heading which represents the average for the week immediately prior to the Reset Determination Date, appearing in the most recently published statistical release designated “H.15,” or any successor publication that is published by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System that establishes yields on actively traded U.S. Treasury securities adjusted to constant maturity, under the caption “Treasury constant maturities,” for the maturity of one year; or (2) if such release (or any successor release) is not published during the week immediately prior to the Reset Determination Date or does not contain such yields, the rate per annum equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity of the Comparable Treasury Issue, calculated using a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for such Reset Determination Date.

If the U.S. Treasury Rate cannot be determined, for whatever reason, as described under (1) or (2) above, “U.S. Treasury Rate” means the rate in percentage per annum as notified by the Calculation Agent to the Company equal to the yield on U.S. Treasury securities having a maturity of one year as set forth in the most recently published statistical release designated “H.15” under the caption “Treasury constant maturities” (or any successor publication that is published weekly by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and that establishes yields on actively traded U.S. Treasury securities adjusted to constant maturity under the caption “Treasury constant maturities” for the maturity of one year) at 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the last available date preceding the Reset Determination Date on which such rate was set forth in such release (or any successor release).

“Comparable Treasury Issue” means, with respect to the Reset Period, the U.S. Treasury security or securities selected by the Company with a maturity date on or about the last day of the Reset Period and that would be utilized, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities denominated in U.S. dollars and having a maturity of one year.

“Comparable Treasury Price” means, with respect to the Reset Determination Date, (i) the arithmetic average of the Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for the Reset Determination Date, after excluding the highest and lowest such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, (ii) if fewer than five such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations are received, the arithmetic average of all such quotations, or (iii) if fewer than two such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations are received, then such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotation.

“Reference Treasury Dealer” means, with respect to the Reset Determination Date, each of up to five banks selected by the Company, or the affiliates of such banks, which are (i) primary U.S. Treasury securities dealers, and their respective successors, or (ii) market makers in pricing corporate bond issues denominated in U.S dollars.

“Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations” means, with respect to each Reference Treasury Dealer and the Reset Determination Date, the arithmetic average, as determined by the Calculation Agent, of the bid and offered prices (such prices being obtained by the Company and furnished to the Calculation Agent) for the applicable Comparable Treasury Issue, expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount, at 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the Reset Determination Date.

BARCLAYS PLC, a company duly incorporated and existing under the laws of England and Wales (herein called the “Company”, which term includes any successor Person under the Indenture hereinafter referred to), for value received, hereby promises to pay to Cede & Co., or registered assigns, the principal sum of US${ } ({ }) on June 24, 2031 (the “Maturity Date”), except as otherwise provided herein, and to pay interest thereon, in accordance with the terms hereof. Interest shall accrue on this Security from June 24, 2020 or from the most recent Interest Payment Date (as defined below) to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, until the principal hereof is paid or made available for payment. Interest shall be paid semi-annually in arrear on June 24 and December 24 of each year (each, an “Interest Payment Date”). From (and including) June 24, 2020 to (but excluding) June 24, 2030 (the “Reset Date”), the Securities will bear interest at a rate of 2.645% per annum. From (and including) the Reset Date to (but excluding) the Maturity Date, the applicable per annum interest rate (the “Subsequent Interest Rate”) will be equal to the sum, as determined by the Calculation Agent, of the then-prevailing U.S. Treasury Rate (such term subject to the provisions of Annex I to the Seventh Supplemental Indenture) on the second Business Day immediately preceding the Reset Date, plus 1.900%.

Subject to the limitations specified on the reverse of this Security, interest on the Securities shall be computed and payable in arrear and on the basis of a 360 day year of twelve 30 day months.

The Calculation Agent, initially the Bank of New York Mellon, London Branch (the “Calculation Agent”), will determine the Subsequent Interest Rate in any circumstance where the Calculation Agent is so required under the terms of the Securities and the Indenture, in accordance with the provisions set forth in Annex I to the Seventh Supplemental Indenture.

No repayment of the principal amount of the Securities or payment of interest on the Securities shall become due and payable after the exercise of any U.K. Bail-in Power by the Relevant U.K. Resolution Authority, unless such repayment or payment would be permitted to be made by the Company under the laws and regulations of the United Kingdom and the European Union applicable to the Company.

The Company at any time and from time to time may change the Paying Agent or, subject to Section 9.01 of the Base Indenture, the Place of Payment, and the Senior Debt Security Registrar without prior notice to the Holders of the Securities, and in such an event the Company may act as Paying Agent or Security Registrar.

This Security is one of a duly authorized issue of securities of the Company (herein called the “Securities” and each, a “Security”) issued and to be issued in one or more series under and governed by the Senior Debt Securities Indenture, dated as of January 17, 2018 (as heretofore amended and supplemented, the “Base Indenture”), between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon, London Branch, as Trustee (herein called the “Trustee,” which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture (as defined below)) as amended and supplemented by the Seventh Supplemental Indenture, dated as of June 24, 2020 (the “Seventh Supplemental Indenture” and, together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”), and reference is hereby made to the Indenture, the terms of which are incorporated herein by reference, for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee, the Holders of the Securities and of the terms upon which the Securities are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. Insofar as the provisions of the Indenture conflict with this Security, the Indenture shall control for purposes of this Security. All terms used in this Security that are defined in the Indenture and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.

This Security is one of the series designated on the face hereof, limited to an aggregate principal amount of $1,000,000,000, which amount may be increased at the option of the Company if in the future it determines that it may wish to sell additional Securities of this series. References herein to “this series” mean the series designated on the face hereof.

The provisions set forth in Section 10.04 of the Base Indenture are applicable to this Security. In addition, the Company agrees, to the extent the Company has actual knowledge of such information, to provide the Paying Agent with sufficient information about any modification to the terms of the Securities for the purposes of determining whether FATCA Withholding Tax applies to any payment of principal or interest in the Securities.

The Company may redeem the Securities pursuant to Section 2.04 of the Seventh Supplemental Indenture. The Company may also redeem the Securities pursuant to Section 11.09 of the Base Indenture and/or Section 2.05 of the Seventh Supplemental Indenture. Any redemption of Securities by the Company is subject to the notice period and provisions set forth in Sections 11.02 and 11.04 of the Base Indenture and in Section 2.13 of the Seventh Supplemental Indenture, and to the conditions set forth in Section 11.10 of the Base Indenture.

The Company may repurchase the Securities pursuant to Section 11.12 of the Base Indenture.

All authority conferred or agreed to be conferred by each Holder and Beneficial Owner pursuant to this Security, including the consents given by such Holder and Beneficial Owner, shall be binding upon the successors, assigns, heirs, executors, administrators, trustees in bankruptcy and legal representatives of such Holder and Beneficial Owner.

The Securities shall constitute the Company’s direct, unconditional, unsecured and unsubordinated obligations and shall rank as set forth in Section 2.01(k) of the Seventh Supplemental Indenture.

The Securities are subject to the waiver of set-off provisions set forth in Section 5.03(c) of the Base Indenture.

This Security is subject to the provisions regarding the U.K. Bail-in Power Acknowledgement set forth in Section 12.01 of the Base Indenture, subject to the provisions of Section 2.14 of the Seventh Supplemental Indenture.

The Securities are subject to provisions set forth in Article 5 of the Base Indenture, provided that the terms of Section 5.01, Section 5.02 and Section 5.03 (except for Section 5.03(c) and Section 5.03(f)) of the Base Indenture shall not apply to the Securities and shall be replaced in their entirety by the enforcement events and remedies set forth in the second and third following paragraphs and as contemplated by Section 2.07 of the Seventh Supplemental Indenture.

The Securities will also be subject to the limitation of remedies provisions set forth in Section 2.07 of the Seventh Supplemental Indenture, and the provisions of Section 2.08, Section 2.09, Section 2.10, Section 2.11 and Section 2.12 of the Seventh Supplemental Indenture.

If a Winding-Up Event occurs, the principal amount of this Security, together with any accrued but unpaid interest thereon, shall become immediately due and payable, without the need of any further action on the part of the Trustee, the Holders or any other Person.

If a Non-Payment Event occurs, the Trustee may, at its discretion, and without further notice to the Company, institute proceedings in England (or such other jurisdiction in which the Company may be organized) (but not elsewhere) for the winding-up of the Company and/or prove in a winding-up of the Company and/or claim in a liquidation or administration of the Company.

The Indenture permits the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Company and the rights of the Holders of the Securities to be affected under the Indenture as contemplated by Article 9 of the Base Indenture. To the extent required by the U.S. Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended, but otherwise notwithstanding any other provision in this Security, the Holder of this Security shall have the right to receive (subject to Section 3.07 of the Base Indenture) payment of any principal of, and interest on, this Security when due (or, in the case of redemption, on or after the Redemption Date), and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment, and such rights shall not be impaired without the consent of such Holder or holder.

This Security, and any other Securities of this series and of like tenor, are issuable only in registered form without coupons in initial denominations of $200,000 and increments of $1,000 thereafter. The denominations cannot be changed without the consent of the Trustee. The provisions on registration, transfer, or exchange, of the Securities set forth in Section 3.05 of the Base Indenture are applicable to the Securities.

No service charge shall be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.

Prior to due presentment of this Security for registration of transfer, the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Security is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Security be overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

This Security shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, except for the waiver of set-off provisions referenced herein and set forth in Section 5.03(c) of the Base Indenture, which shall be governed by and construed in accordance with English law.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as special U.S. counsel to Barclays PLC, a public limited company incorporated under the law of England and Wales (the “Company”), in connection with the Company’s offering pursuant to a registration statement on Form F-3 (No. 333-223156) of $1,000,000,000 2.645% Fixed Rate Resetting Senior Callable Notes due 2031 (the “Securities”), to be issued under an indenture dated as of January 17, 2018 (as heretofore amended and supplemented, the “Base Indenture”), among the Company, The Bank of New York Mellon, London Branch, as trustee and paying agent (the “Trustee”), and The Bank of New York Mellon SA/NV, Luxembourg Branch, as registrar (the “Registrar”), as supplemented by a seventh supplemental indenture dated as of June 24, 2020 (the “Seventh Supplemental Indenture” and, together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”), among the Company, the Trustee and the Registrar. Such registration statement, as amended as of its most recent effective date (June 17, 2020), insofar as it relates to the Securities (as determined for purposes of Rule 430B(f)(2) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”)), including the documents incorporated by reference therein but excluding Exhibits 25.1, 25.2 and 25.3, is herein called the “Registration Statement.”

In arriving at the opinion expressed below, we have reviewed the following documents:

(a) the Registration Statement;

(b) an executed copy of the Base Indenture;

(c) an executed copy of the Seventh Supplemental Indenture; and

(d) a copy of the Securities in global registered form (the “Global Security”) as executed by the Company and authenticated by the Trustee.

In addition, we have made such investigations of law as we have deemed appropriate as a basis for the opinion expressed below.

Barclays PLC, Page 2

In rendering the opinion expressed below, we have assumed the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals and the conformity to the originals of all documents submitted to us as copies. In addition, we have assumed and have not verified the accuracy as to factual matters of each document we have reviewed.

Based on the foregoing, and subject to the further assumptions and qualifications set forth below, it is our opinion that the Securities are valid, binding and enforceable obligations of the Company, entitled to the benefits of the Indenture; provided that we express no opinion as to the validity, binding effect or enforceability of the waiver of set-off provisions set forth in Section 5.03(c) of the Base Indenture (and the corresponding provision in the Global Security), which are governed by English law.

Insofar as the foregoing opinion relates to the validity, binding effect or enforceability of any agreement or obligation of the Company, (a) we have assumed that the Company and each other party to such agreement or obligation has satisfied those legal requirements that are applicable to it to the extent necessary to make such agreement or obligation enforceable against it (except that no such assumption is made as to the Company regarding matters of the federal law of the United States of America or the law of the State of New York that in our experience normally would be applicable to general business entities with respect to such agreement or obligation), (b) such opinion is subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency and similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and to general principles of equity, (c) we express no opinion with respect to the effect of any mandatory choice of law rules and (d) such opinion is subject to the effect of judicial application of foreign laws or foreign governmental actions affecting creditors’ rights.

We express no opinion as to the subject matter jurisdiction of any United States federal court to adjudicate any action relating to the Securities where jurisdiction based on diversity of citizenship under 28 U.S.C. §1332 does not exist.

The foregoing opinion is limited to the federal law of the United States of America and the law of the State of New York. With respect to matters governed by English law, we have relied on the opinion of Clifford Chance LLP dated June 24, 2020, as English counsel to the Company, which has been filed as Exhibit 5.2 to the Company’s Form 6-K dated June 24, 2020.

We hereby consent to the incorporation by reference of this opinion in the Registration Statement and the use of our name in the prospectus constituting a part of the Registration Statement and the prospectus supplement dated June 17, 2020 relating to the Securities under the heading “Validity of Notes.” In giving such consent, we do not thereby admit that we are within the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Securities Act or the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission thereunder.

The opinion expressed herein is rendered on and as of the date hereof, and we assume no obligation to advise you or any other person, or to make any investigations, as to any legal developments or factual matters arising subsequent to the date hereof that might affect the opinion expressed herein.
